OriginsAs their name suggests, the Bravanese hail from Brava (Barawa), a port town on the southeastern coast of Somalia. Barawa is the most diverse place in Somalia and the people of this Banadir coast have been mixing with people from all around the world for hundreds of years. Because of its location and distance from Asia, Middle East, Europe and nearby Islands, Barawa was in good place for people to come and trade while exchanging ideas and other knowledge. The population's members trace their origins to diverse groups, notably Somali, Arabian (particularly Yemeni and Omani), South Asian (mainly Indian), and Persian traders. Most Bravanese people tend to look physically distinct from the majority of their nation. Their culture, food and music resemble those of other East African Islands and coasts].[1][2][3]. LanguageMain language was aftuni which was mainly used by the early inhabitants before Chimwiini after interaction between the shangamas (tuni) and bravanes they came up with a decision to Chimwiinimain language The Bravanese speak the Bravanese language (Chimwiini or Chimini), a variant of the Swahili.[4] The shangamas speak both aftuni and Chimwiini Many also speak Somali, which is an Afro-Asiatic language either as a first, second or third language.
